Just my thoughts #0480

This world is designed to favor the elderly. Gaining experience through trial and error first means that you have a competitive advantage over latecomers. It also occupies an advantageous position in social organization. This is the advantage that arises from being the first to start. However, the statement that 1 plus 1 equals 2 can be understood without any experience; it serves as an analytic proposition that can be known by reason compared to the aforementioned experiential proposition. In other words, in the realm of analytic propositions, the advantage of being older does not hold much weight. The world needs both experiential propositions and analytic propositions, but experience is not always essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

A truck carrying a cow was overturned in an accident on the highway. The cow stuck in the car was on its way to the slaughterhouse. Should you rescue the cow? Is the rescue good or evil? Is the good you are doing good? If the purpose is good, what does it matter? No, what about the opposite? - Joseph’s “just my confusion”
